131848 - PlaySite games' "Join/In Progress" panel is not visible

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Matt Judy]

SUMMARY ***
PlaySite has a plethora of online, Java-based games, most of a very high
quality.  In games that allow more than 2 players, PlaySite uses a tabbed panel
that displays the games you can join, and the games in progress.  This panel is
not visible in Mozilla using Java Plugin 1.0b2

STEPS TO REPRODUCE ***
0-) Start Mozilla, and go to http://www.playsite.com
1-) Click on "Scrabble" (in the orange WORD games box)
2-) Click on a lobby. The applet should load in a new window.
3-) Note that in the interface, everything works great, except that the
"AVAILABLE GAMES" area is nothing but a gray box.

EXPECTED RESULTS ***
Should be able to select a game to join or watch from a tabbed panel in the
location of that empty gray box.

REGRESSION ***
This has not worked on Mac OS X, with any build of the Java PlugIn.  It also
does not work in IE.  No regression.

WORKAROUND ***
You can start your own game, and wait for others to join in, OR you can be
invited into a game by another user.

NOTES ***
Since this does not work in either Mozilla or IE, I am led to believe that this
is Apple's bug in MRJ/JRE.  The panel *was* visible in IE on Mac OS 9.

Confirmed using FizzillaCFM/2002041712 (RC1), but it doesn't work using IE,
either, so this is probably a problem between the applet and MRJ.

The applet certainly generates some errors on the Java Console.

Using the 2002-10-11-04 trunk build under 10.2.1, the java applet appears
correctly and is functional.
